    We Can Deceive Ourselves Series

    Contributed by Dr. Dave Hartson on Jun 29, 2021
    based on 2 ratings
     | 8,864 views

    Deception can come from within. Have you ever told yourself a lie, and talked yourself into believing it? That is self-deception. Have you ever seen your friends doing something, and you know it is wrong, but you still talked yourself into doing that exact same thing? That is self-deception.

    Introduction My Bible tells me as we approach the end times, there will be one major event that will occur that the church is silent about for the most part, and therefore, the church is not teaching its members to be aware. But this event must occur, and we must be prepared for it because God ...read more

    The Cross of Christ is one of division, decision, and dedication.

    The Cross of Christ John 19:16-22 Perhaps the most familiar of all Christian symbols is the cross. Can you look in almost any direction without seeing a cross?

    based on 2 ratings
     | 9,032 views

    This is the 37th sermon in a series from the Gospel of John. In this sermon we examine the crowds that shouted Hosanna during the Triumphal Entry, but then later demanded that Jesus be crucified, and we discuss what led to this, and how true faith differs from this.

    Looking Closer at the Triumphal Entry (John Part 37) Text: John 12:9-19 We’re continuing on with John’s Gospel this morning, and we’re looking at a text that usually gets addressed on Palm Sunday; we call it the Triumphal Entry.
